Our story

Technology has transformed how we communicate, impacting the traditional purpose of sending postcards. Yet, their appeal remains strong as people now purchase postcards as souvenirs, expressions of self, or thoughtful gifts.

Alongside devoted paper enthusiasts, this diverse market keeps the demand high for these artistic mementos. A card, an affordable piece of art at just €2, encapsulates personal moments and expressions, offering tremendous value.

With advanced digital printing techniques, we’re exploring an exciting array of captivating art cards, adding a new dimension to this timeless keepsake.

The Calendar Press came about after working with the iconic John Hinde postcard company, where Stephen Kilcoyne, co-founder of The Calendar Press, worked in the 2010's.

John Hinde (who founded the company in the 1950s), was a pioneer in photography and he grew the company into the world's largest postcard manufacturer. John Hinde postcards continue to be sought after as collectibles, encapsulating a nostalgic era of travel imagery.

The Calendar Press is run by Stephen Kilcoyne and Marion Schlumberger, both Marketing professionals who also operate Woosh Marketing providing Marketing, Branding and General Print & Design services to businesses and individuals in Ireland and the UK.
